Pastilla also know as Bastilla is a traditional Moroccan dish which has its origins in Andalus.
This popular Moroccan dish is basically sweet and salty meat pie wrapped in a phyllo type dough called (warqa). It can be filled with chicken, pigeon, seafood or vegetables. It is really delicious – the combination of savory, sweet, soft and crisp works beautifully.
Pastilla is usually served as a starter.
In New York one can find Warqa at Tanjawi or Naseem Meat Market & Grocery in Astoria or Sahadis in Brooklyn.
You can use phyllo dough too but make sure you butter each layer or it will get too dry and crack.
